Yes, I have indeed been working on the dragon today as well as all of the requested sketches ^___^

Just wanted to wait till I had a few photos ready before I showed you the progress. It's almost got all the colours down. . . and then I'll have to go add a bit more shadows in a few areas, add a few small highlights and redo then ink and then it will be done!




So the rocks got shaded with more ink and a dead brush. It was a pain in the ass doing all that ;__;



And this is how the rest of the picture looks with the black and white shading ^___^ Not too bad huh? But i know where i went wrong. Since I'm bringing this too full colour, I should have left more areas white. Well, I know for next time at least! And i kinda wished I had used my brown inks since colour looks nicer over it...



water with colour and no, the dragon isn't going to be green ^___^ the highlights just look that way.



Next, grass and trees. . . man I'm going to have to really redo all those lines to get the effect I want.



Rocks painted! I actually like them now ^___^



And this is where I'm ending it for today! See, it's a little gold dragon! Still a lot of work to do, because I need to do another layer of colour over that little dragon. . .but it's looking fairly good so far.


So, having fun?

*purrrs* I'm actually surprised at how well the background is turning out to me. It's giving me the confidence to attempt other paintings in the future ^___^
